A and B are single channel recording of current in two different conditions.

 

A: GABAA receptors (outside-out patches: this means that the downward deflections represent inward negative current through these channels).  Recordings in normal extracellular fluid with GABA in the recording electrode/pipette.

B: GABAA receptors (outside-out patches: this means that the downward deflections represent inward negative current through these channels).  Recordings in extracellular fluid containing pentobarbital (again with GABA in the recording electrode/pipette).
